    Hi there. As a plumber the way you've put your over flow in to the tee .. id suggest turning the tee the other way around for better flow. I also own an above ground koi pond 😁. Apart from that cracking work buddy. 😃

    Great job on the cover for the IBC. Should really help protect it from the upcoming winter. Upflow filters seem to be working a treat. Good job on such a simple and inexpensive build. 👍🏻 👍🏻 👍🏻

    I dont experience winter here in Jamaica, but the heat during the summer was really up, i had to cover a few of my ponds, this prevent algae bloom and high temperature in ponds which impacts on fish reproduction cycle. Thanks for this share boss

    That's looking great.. that stuff is so expensive here.
    How would that do with snow on it?
    You are definitely prepared for winter my friend.

      @@stubbsaquatics6080 i was a bit doubtful when i did mine but i put a hell of a lot of silicone around the edges and made sure all the pressure would be on the bars around the window edges its been fine and you could always put stainless steel nuts and bolts around the the perspex it woulnt move then so i say go for it 👍👍
